FSA TESTING
If your child will be taking the test on these days, please ensure that your child gets a good night's sleep the night before and eats a healthy breakfast the morning before the test. It is important for your child to understand that electronic devices are not allowed. Students will have to have to turn them off and put them in their book bags, which will be stored in a safe location outside of the classroom. This includes watches, or any other wearable items if they are linked to electronic devices. If students have an electronic device, their test will be invalidated. Also, please remind your child to be quiet and follow all directions during the test and of course, to do their best. They have been preparing all year and are ready for this test.
If your child is in K-2, please remind them that the school will need to be very quiet and when students are walking through the hallways they must be silent. Also, we will have a modified schedule on testing days, so lunch and special times will be different.
Read the FSA letter for the dates and more details.
